What is Lies Greatest Boon I?

Ask any one the above question,
and the answer will be made instant
ly, "Life's greatest boon is the enjoy
ment of good health" No one feels
more keenly the absence of this
heavenly boon than the weak and
delicate women, and no one more
keenly than she will appreciate the
blessings of good health, or more
eagerly seek for the remedies which
will restore her wasted strength to
the full perfection which health alone
can give. To all such we earnestly
appeal to read the following testi-
mony of a well-known lady resident
in Hopkinsville, KY:
HoPKINsvILLE,KY KY, Feb. "a, 1887.
Gentlemen-Seven years ago a sore
developed on my nose from a finger
nail scratch. / tried a few simple
remedies, but the sore would not
yield. / grew worse every year for
seven years. Many thought l had a
cancer. Over a year ago / began TAX
s. s. s., and two bottles entirely cured
me.
When / began with Swift's Specific
1 was. in very poor health, and could
hardly drag about. After 1 had
finished the course Of S. s. s. 1 was
strong and buoyant and had a good
appetite. regard it as Almost valu-
able medicine for ladies in weak,
delicate health. 1t is a household
medicine with me. Yours truly,
MRS. r. w. WILSON.

A Petersburg, Va, Merchant.

Mr.. r. F. Hobbs is one of the sue
cessful merchants of Petersburg, Va.
He is generally known in Southeast
Virginia. He has been a long suffer-
er from rheumatism. His way of
curing himself may benefit hundreds
of his fellow sufferers, and therefore
Mr.. Hobbs own account of his cure
is given:
PETERSBURG, VA.,April 16,1S87.
Gentlemen had had dyspepsia
for a year, when recently 1 took seven
bottles of S. S. s. Your medicine
gave me greater relief and did me
more good than anything / ever took.

The New Secretary.

AT last the question of Mr.. Man
ning's successor has been settled.
Mr.. Fairchild succeeds to the place,
and Mr.. Isaac II. Maynard, of New
York, who has been second Controller
in the department, is appointed AS.
sistant Secretary of the Treasury to
fill the position made vacant by Mr.,
Fairchild's promotion.
"Charles Stebbins Fairchild was
born at Cazenovia, N. Y, April 30,
1912, and his position as cabinet
minister finds him In the prime OF
life and well fitted for the onerous
labors as head of the financial de
partment Of the government. His
father was for many years the attor-
ney for the New York Central Rail
road and is one OF the eminent men
of New York. The new Secretary
Of the Treasury received his early
education at the Methodist seminary
at Cazenovia and he entered Harvard
in 1859, being graduated from that
institution with the class of 1868.
He then attended the Harvard law
school and was admitted to the bar
in 1865, and subsequently, became
one of the firm OF Hart, Hale, Swartz
d Fairchild, one Of the most success
ful legal combinations in New York.
In 1874 he was appointed Deputy
Attorney General, and in this, his
first political position, he so distin-
gulshed himself that in the ensuing
year he was nominated by the Dem
ocratic convention for the Attorney.
Generalship and was elected.
He served in this capacity for two
years, and they were eventrul ones
Tor the people Of New York, because
the canal ring was receiving the at
tenuon of Governor Tllden, and his
Attorney General cordially seconded
his efforts to rid the State Of them

when he returned to New York, he
had acquired a valuable fund Of IN
formation. From $780, when he re
turned from Europe. up to the time

our Defective Constitution.

Under the provisions of an act of
the Legislature the people will have
an opportunity at the next general
election september, 1889, to say
whether or not they are in favor of
holding a convention for the pur-
pose of framing new organic law
for the State. The question is one
of the greatest importance to the
people, as it has been clearly shown
that our present constitution, how
ever adequate to our wants at the
time of its adoption, is strikingly
unsuitable in many particulars to
present needs. The Little Rock
Democrat, one of the oldest, boldest
and most persistent advocates of a
new constitution, shows that in the
following particulars our constitu-
ton needs amendments:
ID Special elections. e. Chang
es Of venue. I'D Jurisdiction Of in
ferior courts. a. Limitations of
the sessions of the legislature. (5.)
The number of justices of the peace.
co. Exemptions Of both personally
and realty. az The homestead.
80 The Limitation Of taxation, es-
pecially IN cities. 90 Reduction
in number of Legislators. (10.) Ex-
emption of certain property from
taxation. (l1.) Public improve
ments, especially on levees, public
roads and highways, by direct tax
alton. az. More stringent provis
ions against special and local legis
lation. (l3. The establishment of
fixed salaries for State officers and
members OF the general assembly,
not to be changed for a term of, say
twelve years. (l4.) Making clear
and explicit certain doubtful and
conflicting provisions as to the ten

certain persons to office. Is. Long

The members OF the Arkansas leg
islature after continuous session OF
eighty-one days closed their labors
last Thursday noon and returned to
the nstituencies from whence they
came. The criticisms on the body
and its labors are as wide and varied
as were the interests they were call
ed upon to serve, and the rendering
of a ust verdict is among the lmpos.
sibllities. Following the middle
ground between both extremes
strikes us as about the best thing
that can be done and this will leave
the body classed as a medium legis-
lature or as good as the average leg
islature in our State. That several
really meritorious measures were en-
acted into laws, and many actually
bad ones met the fate they deserved
can be set down to their credit, no
one will deny. but the ROWING evil
consists in their failure to grasp the
opportunity to pass certain measures
demanded by the people and expect
ed at their hands. But it might have
been worse, and even this is some
consolation.

Connecticut Anti-ProtectIonists

The New York Times says: ut
will be great blow to John Sher-
man and not pleasant news to Mr..
Blaine to learn that committee of
the Legislature of Connecticut, hav-
ing Republican majority, has re.
ported fayorably resolution that
goes to the heart of the only remain
ing protested principle OF the Re
publican platform makers that has
any vitality in it. Their resolution
declares that the Federal taxes on
imported lumber, wood, salt and cop
per ore are an injury to the interests
of commerce. The declaration is
entirely true. These taxes are an
injury not only to the interests of
Connecticut, but to those of the whole
country and particularly to the man
ufacturing interests. They make
manufactures of almost every sort
more costly and they add to the cost
of living while reducing the wages
OF the workmen. These Truths, that
are so obvious as that two aud two
make four and not five or three, have
been generally recognized by intel
ligent students for many years, but
they have, so far as possible, been
kept secret from the Republican vo
ters. That they should now be in
dorsed by Republican Committee
in a manufacturing State, is an i'll
omen for those who, like the two
gentlemen named. have been bank
ing on the continued ignorance and
gullibilty of the manufacturing en-
terprses."

himself capable, faithful and eff
cient legislator, who has at all times
labored zealously in the interest OF
his constituency. Sometimes lii
tie too cautious and decidedly econ
omical in all matters of public ex-
penditures, he was right in large
majority of the questions that came
before the senate. If he committed
errors they were unintentlonal. He
was on the whole, very safe and

him that he represented his county

ability, and he has good ability.
He always voted as he believed to be
in the interest of the people at large.
Among the bills he supported were
the Balch bill, the Smith railroad bill
(stating that he supported the Smith
bill because it was evident that the
senate would not pass bill with a
railroad commission J, the bill for the
repeal of the law giving the mort
gagor the right to waive his rights
